Third Generation of a Legend (Volkswagen Scirocco)

Wolfsburg,

When I think back to the earliest car of my desire, just before I was able to start driving at 15 years of age... only one car stood out, a Volkswagen Scirocco.  I ultimately did get one, a mint, previously enjoyed 1986 1/2 second generation Scirocco II 16V model. Boy did that car turn heads and impress the friends, she was equally pampered (I washed her daily) and driven as she was made to be.

 

Now Scirocco is back but alas not here in the USA: 34 years after the world premiere of the first Scirocco at the Geneva Motor Show, Volkswagen is has presented the Scirocco of the new era in the same venue.

 

Now as before, the coupe embodies the fascinating strategy of putting a sports car on wheels that is fit for use every day of the year at absolutely affordable prices. That is precisely what the new Scirocco does: high-class technologies merge with low costs of ownership, dynamic driving characteristics merge with a high level of comfort, and a surprisingly spacious interior merges with an uncompromisingly sporty design.

 

Please bring this warm wind back to our American shores Volkswagen, are you listening?
